Sneak peek: 2012 Monaco RV models!

We're really enjoying our time in Manitowoc, Wisconsin. Yesterday was the official opening of the display and Monaco unveiled several 2012 models with exciting changes!

Here are a few pictures of the new full body paint designs and re-designed front and end caps: The new 2012 Dynasty makes its debut with a new floorplan - This quad slide 45' diesel is called "The Palace" and we know why - it is definitely luxury fit for a king!

RV Country Announces the Arrival of the Keystone 246 RLS with the Reese Revolution Pin Box!

You may remember the article  we did back in April on the Keystone 246 RLS Cougar High Country Fifth Wheel that comes equipped with a Reese Revolution Pin Box. We are extremely excited to announce that we have one in stock - on the lot! This is a must see unit! This is the FIRST EVER of its kind. It's a double slide out fifth wheel that weights only 6,700 lbs, and the Reese Revolution Pin Box is BUILT IN!

What’s a Reese revolution Pin Box you ask? Let us tell you all about it! It is by far one of the coolest things since the pudgy pie! It allows short bed trucks to make 90+ degree turns effortlessly, with no fear of contact, and without the need for an automatic sliding hitch. How awesome is that?!

Imagine…no more swinging out to make a turn and only one moving part with no lubrication or regular cleaning required.

It’s just another reason to come see us and purchase a Cougar by Keystone!

Green RV Parks for the RV Lifestyle

Did you know that there are RV parks that are actually certified as ‘Green’? There’s even a way to search for these green parks. If you’re on Facebook head over to Facebook.com/Woodalls. They have a searchable database where you can click on a state and get a list of parks certified to be green. Now that's pretty nifty!

In order to be considered “Green-Friendly,” parks must meet nine out of the 18 criteria listed below:

• Tankless water heaters.
• Motion sensors for lighting in bathrooms and clubhouses.
• Energy-efficient light bulbs.
• Non-toxic, biodegradable cleaning products.
• Water saving showerheads and/or faucets with automatic shutoff taps.
• Recycle bins for cans, paper, glass and plastic.
• Energy saving appliances.
• Eco-friendly and “Leave No Trace” tips and education for guests.
• Landscaping that uses wood chip, pebble, paved or grass paths to decrease soil erosion.
• “Reduce Water Usage” signage for guests around the park.
• One or more of the following: lighting, heaters and/or coolers with timers.
• Solar or wind power.
• Low flush toilets or waterless urinals.
• Grey water access (if allowed in state).
• On-site organic composting.
• Email confirmations rather than paper to minimize paper waste.
• Geothermal heating and cooling.
• A program for frequent tree planting.

 Happy RVing!

RV Buddies review the Monaco Vesta

We here at Paul Evert's RV Country were not the only ones excited to see the new Monaco Vesta arrive, it turns out the folks at RV Buddies sure were too!  A full review, photos, and video of the Monaco RV Vesta 32 PBS are now live on RV Buddies website.

"After reading this review and watching this video you will see why we named it one of the best RVs of the year," said Mark Summers, Executive Producer of the show.

The Monaco RV Vesta is the result of extensive research and development. It was developed with wind tunnel testing and features many aerodynamic design features, including flush bus-style windows to assist in reducing drag.

Monaco Coach describes this state of the art RV as being designed for today's RV Lifestyle.  It is perfect for everything from football tailgate parties to sightseeing across America.  The cockpit makes it easier to see, the nimble chassis makes it easier to navigate and park, and the engine is easier on fuel AND the environment, compared to traditional motorhomes. 

RV Buddies is an RV adventure-lifestyle show featuring reviews of RVs, accessories and gear, featuring hosts Mark Summers, Elise Baughman and Robert Wittenberg.  The program is distributed as an Internet television production on its own website, on Apple iTunes and through other distribution channels including iPad and phone friendly versions for iPhone, Blackberry and Android.

What are you looking for in a new RV? Poll results show....

You have spoken and the RV makers have heard you! According to a recent RV consumer poll there are some sought after features you're looking for in a new RV and Paul Evert's RV just happens to have them in stock!

#1 - Larger kitchen counter tops!
While the sink covers are helpful, RV consumers are looking for a little something more.

The Keystone Montana High Country isn't only state of the art when it comes to weight, look at all that counter space pictured above!

The Keystone Outback Sydney Edition 325FRE (Pictured above) again shows that not all counter tops are created equal.

Monaco Coach makes the most of the counter space in their luxury motorhomes by including a pull out counter, solid sink covers, and stove covers.

#2 - Larger showers!
With all of the sprawling floorplans offered, some manufacturers are sure to not forget the spacious bathroom.

Thor Motorcoach is ensuring your comfort by installing a 24" x 40" shower in the Challenger 32VS.

While still trying to minimize space, the new A.C.E. by Thor Motorcoach is installing curved shower curtain rods to allow for extra shoulder room.

Various floorplans in Montana by Keystone RV can include a spacious 36" garden tub/shower with an adjustable height shower head, molded shelves, and a wash cloth holder.

#3 - Residential sized beds!
This one makes a lot of sense, replacing a mattress or buying linens is much easier without a specialty sized bed.  Paul Evert's RV Country carries several brands and models that now offer this feature.

Both Monaco RV and Tiffin Motorhomes offer residential sized Select Comfort beds.

Every Keystone Montana offers full sized residential King Beds

What features would you like to have in your next RV?

Replace your RV vent lids - Do it right the first time.

As with any vehicle, RV's require maintenance. If you have owned your motorhome, fifth wheel, or travel trailer for a while, chances are you've had to or soon should replace your vent covers.

The Paul Evert's RV Parts & Accessory Department recommends you replace them every two years. In fact, these vent covers are our most commonly sold part! However, we find that quite a few of our customers drive all the way here, only to realize they don't know what type of hinge their vent lid uses! They then have to drive home, inspect, and make a second trip to complete their purchase.

We hope the handy chart below will help you to know what you are looking for. Then, whether you choose to call in or come down here, we can make purchasing these necessary items much simpler and quicker for you!

Our parts department can be reached at 559-486-1000 or you can request parts via our easy online form at www.rvcountry.com.

National Stats rate Keystone Cougar #1

Selection. Selection! Selection?

If you've ever researched purchasing an RV, chances are you came across DOZENS of different RV manufacturers. That's when the questions start: Which one do we choose? Which one is better? Which one has the best warranty? What about dependability and quality? It's easy for your eyes to cross and your head to start hurting, isn't it?

That's where we come in. As a dealer, Paul Evert's RV Country tries to do some of the work for you. We've checked them all out, narrowed that overwhelming list down to the best of the best, and pride ourselves on having a quality selection of the best built, top rated motorhomes, fifth wheels, travel trailers, and tent trailers available!

When Keystone RV came onto the market in 1996, we knew they were going someplace special and that's why we signed up to carry just about every Fifth Wheel, Travel trailer, and toy hauler model they make! Just recently, the national statistics have shown one of those models rising to the top of the list - The Cougar by Keystone!

• The Keystone Cougar is now the #1 selling model among all other towable recreational vehicles!
• The Keystone Cougar has been and still is the #1 selling mid-profile fifth wheel for 9 straight years!
• The Keystone Cougar has been and still is the #1 selling fiberglass product for 2 1/2 years!

WOW those are some impressive numbers! Lucky for you, we have several different floorplans of both the Cougar fifth wheel and Cougar travel trailer in stock, many of which are half-ton towable! Visit our website to check them out or stop by anytime to see for yourself!

No more wood blocks or tongue jack hassles with the Flip Automatic jack-foot!

At Paul Evert's RV Country, we are always on the lookout for tools and tricks that make RVing the relaxing vacation it should be. LESS work is MORE fun, right!? Here's a handy tool we now have on display and stocked in our store!

If you're like most trailer owners, you spend a lot of time hassling with your tongue jack. You have to chase around several wood blocks, kneel down and mess with a pin, or put up with a flimsy removable jack foot.

With the Fastway Flip automatic jack foot, you can say goodby to all of those problems. With a Flip jack foot there is:

• No hassle with wood blocks
• 6" less cranking up and down
• Nothing extra for you to store
• No more kneeling down
• No pins for you to pull or insert

The Flip automatic jack foot is designed to fit most 2 1/4" tongue jacks with a 2" dimension inner jack tube - round or square. It's tough enough to hold up to 1,400lbs of tongue weight and can easily be installed in just a few minutes.

Stop by the Paul Evert's RV Country parts store to TRY it and BUY it for yourself!

Hi Everybody!

The RV lifestyle may be a relaxed one, but the things behind the scenes in the RV Industry move quick! Hope you don't mind the quick snippets, but there are lots of neat things coming your way and we (Paul Evert's RV Country) can't wait to provide those to you!

Last year, Paul Evert's RV partnered with Jayco and has had great success with their towable products such as the Jay Flight and Jay Feather. Well, we can now tell you that we've taken on one of their motorized models as well! We have Greyhawks, a class C motorhome, on order and will let you know as soon as the first ones hit the lot!

As you may also know, Paul Evert's RV carries the full Keystone RV line, which we believe is one the most affordable, well built products available, and it's a #1 seller nationwide too! That being said, they haven't stopped taking the customers suggestions to heart. New to 2010 (AND ON ITS WAY TO US) is a new "High Country" line. Combined with what Keystone is calling the "Helium Package" you can now own a super lite weight fifth wheel with two slides that can be towed with a 1/2 ton truck!! You won't be able to find this ANYWHERE else in the industry!

Monaco RV is now building 2011 (YES, TWO THOUSAND ELEVEN) products. We just received a 2011 Cayman 40PBQ and have a Diplomat on the way! You've gotta see this Cayman. It has 8 airbags, a better chassis, a bigger engine, full tile throughout, 2 LCD TV's in the livingroom, and more and more! Click HERE to see all the pictures!





Of course, there's more to come later in the year, but we were really excited to share with you things that are tangibly happening! Stay tuned for future announcements soon!
